President Ram Nath Kovind will participate in the 86th birth anniversary celebrations of the late president, APJ Abdul Kalam, at Rashtrapati Bhavan on Sunday, a statement by the APJ Abdul Kalam International Foundation said today.
The President will interact with Dr Kalam’s family members at Rashtrapati Bhavan and receive the Kalam Sandesh Vahini: Vision 2020 bus, which is expected to arrive on the day after travelling through 16 states, spreading the message about Dr Kalam’s vision, it said.
The bus was flagged off by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on July 27 this year.
Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu is also expected to flag off a rally – Clean and Green India – from India Gate. A large number of students are expected to participate in it.
